Biography

Leo is a name which Phantoms fans may remember from last season, with the 18 year old forward icing six times for Slava’s side, scoring one goal.

Markey’s junior hockey was split between Peterborough and Streatham, but he showed a keen eye for goal throughout the age groups and wore an alternate captain ‘A’ for the Peterborough Phantoms U18 side last season.

He also iced for the Phantoms NIHL2 side last season, scoring ten goals and seven assists for 17 points in 18 regular season games.

Leo said the following on his prospect contract: ““I’m really looking forward to spending more time with the Phantoms this year. I got a few opportunities last year which really helped me to grow as a player and adjust to the quicker and stronger style of hockey in the National League. I’m still young, so this gives me the perfect opportunity to play for a good team, surrounded by a team of great players who I can learn from and look up to, whilst being close to home to help me grow and develop as a player. I can’t wait to get back to training, and start working hard ready for this season”

And, Kynaston, a key member of the Phantoms Academy, was also pleased to see Markey progressing from the junior set up into the senior side: “Leo brings that youthful energy and enthusiasm in the way he plays, good skating ability and a directness make Leo a threat. A player again I have seem develop over many years Leo has a good foundation and a great opportunity to refine his game and develop into a senior player.”
